Acute Care Guide app for iPhone and iPad

This guide is aimed at medical students and junior doctors to enable them to know what to do in an acute situation. It is the culmination of a lot of work by a lot of people. It is designed for use in Tayside and has many specific protocols and contact numbers for that reason, but many of the approaches described are generic and it will have much wider application.

Please use this guide with care and a healthy dose of common sense. It should not be relied upon to replace clinical knowlege or experience and the first thing you should do in many of the situations is call for senior help.
